Thank you everyone I have now sorted this. ๐Ÿ‘

Hi all,

I have dropped this spring bar sleeve down the sink when washing the strap of my SPB153 Willard. I have contacted Seiko and been told I would have to buy a new strap!!!! Do any of you good folks have one laying around I could purchase please? Thanks

Any watchmaker has them and jewelry stores probably. amazon has heavy duty ones with tiny rings at the ends for removal tools to catch. cheap as dirt.

guessing it looks like a 2 or 2.5mm but you could get yourself a cheap plastic veneer caliper on amazon, take a measurement. I get my dress watch spring bars on ebay but Uncle Seiko sells these thicc ones as well. They're cheap ๐Ÿ‘

Look for the "fat spring bars for seiko" in whatever size you need.

Thank you very much for that, I have ordered some. ๐Ÿ‘Œ

Whenever I lose a springbar sleeve, I'm coming to you because I wager you have about 20 extras from an AliExpress order ๐Ÿ˜œ
